Large cats are some of the most fascinating carnivores in Africa, and there is probably no better place to observe these magnificent creatures than Mala Mala, a reserve bordering the Kruger Park, and generally considered one of the top game reserves in Africa. Roger De la Harpe has spent months following and photographing the various families and species of cat to be found there, from the magnificent social lion and solitary but deadly leopard, to the fleet-footed cheetah. Roger's love of these wild cats comes through in the stunning photography, and in the chatty and very informative text, which details Mala Mala's hunting and conservation background in the lowveld, and provides a fascinating look at African folklore surrounding the cats. Also included is a profile of each species as well as some very interesting points on some of the individuals and families he photographed at Mala Mala. This book will appeal to anyone with a passing interest in wildlife, particularly those interested in African cats, both local and tourist alike. Definitely not your average pretty picture book -- there are shots that have to be seen to be believed. A lion cub eating a buffalo from the inside, cheetah attacking a full grown hyena and lots more besides!
